The goal of this mixed-methods study is to assess the impact of a Community Health Worker (CHW)-led social risk screening and referral in improving management of uncontrolled diabetes (DM) and hypertension (HTN) among patients receiving care in community health centers (CHCs or health centers). The intervention is focused on adult health center patients with uncontrolled DM and/or HTN. Study findings will provide important evidence to guide CHCs in implementing programs to address social risks in their patient populations. Findings will illuminate whether and how CHW-led interventions to address social needs yield the hypothesized outcomes. The aims of the study are: * AIM 1: Measure how effective the CHW-led social risk program is at reducing blood sugar levels (A1C) in CHC patients with uncontrolled DM and lowering blood pressure in CHC patients with uncontrolled HTN. * AIM 2: Identify effective strategies for increasing and expanding CHW-led social risk programs.

The goal of this clinicial trial is to test the acceptability and feasibility of linear cognitive aid intervention to support EMS teams in responding to pediatric emergencies. We are testing the hypothesis that cognitive aids with linear logic will be feasible to use and acceptable to EMS teams in urban and rural areas. Researchers will compare technical performance, teamwork, and self-assessed cognitive load of participants to see the difference between performing resuscitations using their current standard with existing cognitive aids and using our linear cognitive aid. Participants' teams will: * perform in situ high-fidelity simulation of two critical children's resuscitation scenarios * be randomized to 1) perform both resuscitations with their current standard with existing cognitive aids or 2) perform both resuscitations using our linear cognitive aid.

Now affecting one in six couples in Canada, infertility is defined as a lack of conception after 12 or more months of regular, unprotected sexual intercourse. Infertility can result from a number of causes; however, women are responsible for accommodating rigid treatment regimens and carry a disproportionate share of the psychological burden associated with infertility. Thirty to forty percent of women presenting for the evaluation of infertility experiencing clinically significant depression or anxiety. Yet access to infertility-specific mental health resources is extremely limited in Canada; current psychological interventions are not specialized to this population and are largely ineffective at reducing distress. Therefore, there is an enormous need to increase the efficacy and accessibility of mental health resources for this population. To address this need, the 7-week Coping with Infertility (CWI) program was developed in collaboration with women with lived experience with infertility. The CWI program aims to reduce distress related to infertility and was recently tested in a small pilot study, where it was found to be very effective in reducing depression and anxiety and improving quality of life among individuals struggling to get pregnant. The goal of this clinical study is to test the CWI program in adult women experiencing infertility. The main questions it aims to answer are if the CWI program is effective at improving mental health and well-being in women experiencing infertility, and if demographic or lifestyle factors moderate the effect of the treatment. For seven weeks, participants will receive the CWI program and complete online questionnaires and interviews to assess the program's effects on infertility-related distress, quality of life, depressive symptoms, anxiety, and relationship quality. They will then complete these questionnaires biweekly for 16 weeks following the program. Researchers will compare the CWI program to a waitlist/treatment as usual control condition to see if the program reduces psychological distress above and beyond women's ordinary coping strategies. If the program is effective in improving psychological well-being in this clinical study, the researchers will make the program widely and freely available to women throughout Canada and the world.

The goal of this clinical trial is to learn if the RESPONSIBLEPLAY© intervention helps promote responsible gambling behaviors in University of Nevada, Las Vegas (UNLV) students aged 21 and older who have a Problem Gambling Severity Index (PGSI) score of 3 or higher. The main questions it aims to answer are: Does the intervention reduce harmful gambling behaviors? Does the intervention increase responsible gambling practices? Researchers will compare participants receiving the RESPONSIBLEPLAY© intervention with those receiving a knowledge-based intervention to see if the RESPONSIBLEPLAY© intervention is more effective. Participants will: Attend three face-to-face sessions on responsible gambling over three weeks. Complete surveys before, after, and eight weeks after the intervention to track their progress.

The existence of racially/ethnically based health disparities is well established, both within the civilian community and among Service Members and Veterans. Experiences of discrimination are acute and chronic stressors that substantially contribute to greater emotional distress, poorer health behavior, lower healthcare utilization and increased allostatic load, all of which undermine well-being, functioning and Whole Health. An innovative clinical program, the Race-Based Stress/Trauma and Empowerment (RBSTE) group, was developed to help Veterans of Color to build coping resources and empowerment. Although qualitative data suggest the promise of this intervention, systematic evaluation is lacking. The proposed feasibility project will lay the groundwork for a future randomized controlled trial to evaluate RBSTE as compared to a control group in terms of Whole Health, functioning and mental/physical wellness. The project thus begins a program of research to address the health implications of systemic racism.

The goal of this clinical trial is to assess the effectiveness of an evidence-based, organizational-level implementation strategy, the Systems Analysis and Improvement Approach, in improving HIV service delivery (SAIA-SSP-HIV) in U.S. syringe services programs (SSPs). The main questions it aims to answer are: * Does SAIA-SSP-HIV improve delivery of HIV services (including the proportion of SSP participants receiving HIV testing and referrals to appropriate clinical services for HIV prevention and treatment) compared to implementation as usual (IAU)? * Does SAIA-SSP-HIV result in sustained improvement of HIV service delivery cascades (including the proportion of SSP participants receiving HIV testing and referrals to appropriate clinical services for HIV prevention and treatment) compared to IAU? * What are the costs associated with SAIA-SSP-HIV and how cost-effective is the strategy? The trial will take place over 21 months and consist of a 3-month lead-in period, a 12-month active period, and a 6-month sustainment period. During the 12-month active period a SAIA specialist will meet with SSPs randomized to the SAIA-SSP-HIV arm to help them optimize their HIV service delivery cascades. Researchers will compare the SAIA-SSP-HIV and IAU arms to see if HIV service delivery and costs and cost-effectiveness differ by group.

Frequently Asked Questions

How much do Healthy Controls clinical trials pay?

Each trial will compensate patients a different amount, but $50-100 for each visit is a fairly common range for Phase 2–4 trials (Phase 1 trials often pay substantially more). Further, most trials will cover the costs of a travel to-and-from the clinic.

How do Healthy Controls clinical trials work?

After a researcher reviews your profile, they may choose to invite you in to a screening appointment, where they'll determine if you meet 100% of the eligibility requirements. If you do, you'll be sorted into one of the treatment groups, and receive your study drug. For some trials, there is a chance you'll receive a placebo. Across Healthy Controls trials 30% of clinical trials have a placebo. Typically, you'll be required to check-in with the clinic every month or so. The average trial length for Healthy Controls is 12 months.

How do I participate in a study as a "healthy volunteer"?

Not all studies recruit healthy volunteers: usually, Phase 1 studies do. Participating as a healthy volunteer means you will go to a research facility several times over a few days or weeks to receive a dose of either the test treatment or a "placebo," which is a harmless substance that helps researchers compare results. You will have routine tests during these visits, and you'll be compensated for your time and travel, with the number of appointments and details varying by study.

What does the "phase" of a clinical trial mean?

The phase of a trial reveals what stage the drug is in to get approval for a specific condition. Phase 1 trials are the trials to collect safety data in humans. Phase 2 trials are those where the drug has some data showing safety in humans, but where further human data is needed on drug effectiveness. Phase 3 trials are in the final step before approval. The drug already has data showing both safety and effectiveness. As a general rule, Phase 3 trials are more promising than Phase 2, and Phase 2 trials are more promising than phase 1.

Do I need to be insured to participate in a Healthy Controls medical study?

Clinical trials are almost always free to participants, and so do not require insurance. The only exception here are trials focused on cancer, because only a small part of the typical treatment plan is actually experimental. For these cancer trials, participants typically need insurance to cover all the non-experimental components.

What are the newest Healthy Controls clinical trials?

Most recently, we added LIFUP Neuromodulation for Healthy Controls, Yoga for Persistent Post-Surgical Pain and Stress Induction for Borderline Personality Disorder to the Power online platform.
